Jill & Carol Night Mushroom Fairies

This is my free coloring pages blog.

Today's new coloring page is of a pair of friends who

are Night Mushroom Fairies. 

Jill & Carol Night Mushroom Fairies

Jill and Carol are great friends. They are also a type of Mushroom Fairy that is nocturnal. So they are called Night Mushroom Fairies.  They are seen here in their natural size of around 5 inches tall. They are out at night, and they are kneeling on mushrooms.   These Mushroom Fairies collect edible mushrooms for the Fairy village.  They can also identify which species of mushrooms are useful for medicinal purposes. And of course, Mushroom Fairies can identify and avoid poisonous fungi like toadstools.  

Don't assume that these little Fairies are defenseless.  Those wands are used to focus powerful Fairy magic. Notice the flying belt that both Fairies are wearing.  These Belteum Valorum are flying belts that allow Fairies to fly at great speed and fly for extended periods of time.  Fairies don't need the belt to fly, but they DO need it to fly fast and to fly long distances or to fly for a long time.  Some Fairies carry blowdart tubes, and they use certain fungi to make a sleeping potion for the tips of their darts. 

Fairies have magic, but they also have advanced tech.  They have incorporated their magic and their technology.  This gives them advantages over we mere mortals.  If a mortal sees a Fairy, the mortal will think they are looking at a beautiful butterfly or maybe a dragonfly.  And Fairies can transform to mortal size.  Some Fairies live among mortals much of their lives.  Many Fairies even marry mortals.  And yes, there are both male and female Fairies.  

Now, I want to tell you that these are a pair of beautiful Fairies.  But they are even more beautiful because they are genuinely kind and intelligent.  Kindness enhances beauty.  Though some Fairies ARE vain, that does not describe Carol and Jill.  Yet for all their humility, they really are very beautiful.  They probably don't realize it, or maybe do know how beautiful they are. Or maybe they just know how important it is to be kind and to have an intelligent mind.

Jill is also a Tiger Swallow-tail Fairy.  Notice how her wings mimic that type of butterfly.  Carol is a Lacewing Fairy with translucent to transparent lace-like wings.  Notice that it is a moonless night, and the main source of light is the wand-light.
